Manufacturing Methods and Technology Program Plan: CY 1987.

Abstract

The Manufacturing Methods and Technology (MMT) Program serves the U.S. Army Materiel Command (AMC) as a mechanism to bridge between research and development and production. The program's primary aim is to reduce the cost of weapon system production by improving the efficiency of manufacturing processes and by implementing new technology. Although cost reduction is the primary concern of the program, efforts are also directed towards air and water pollution, increasing safety, conserving energy, reducing dependency on critical materials, improving producibility, and increasing productivity. The MMT Program Plan, CY 1987, provides within a single source a summary of current and near-term efforts included in the Army Materiel Command MMT Program.
